I downloaded 90000 alpha and have not been able to get my wireless working. It is an Intel 3945 on a Dell Latitude D820. I am not able to activate the card. Everytime I try to activate, I get the following error:

Determining IP information for wlan0...SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory
SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory

Was the firmware for this card removed by any chance.
or is there something I am missing..
I did try with a Fedora 9 Live CD before I installed Blag, and Fedora Live was able to find and work with my wireless device.

Do you know what kind of wireless card the D820 has? To list all PCI devices, type:

Code:

lspci

Feel free to post the output here if it isn't obvious. Likewise, the following will list the kernel modules loaded at boot time:

Code:

lsmod

My B130 had a Broadcom 4318, and I was able to get it working with BLAG. The kernel should include the required drivers, but the firmware is non-free and will have to be downloaded from elsewhere. You will also need bcm43xx-fwcutter to extract the firmware into a format usable by your Linux kernel. There is a good How-to on this very topic at http://forums.fedoraforum.org/printthread.php?t=156282.
